Man, it's too early for Peters to be on the hot seat with 2 straight losses, hopefully we can pull this one off. Thoughts, bluedevil?

My prediction - lazy performance by Eric and Semin, mostly just sitting around watching the game pass them by. Zero saves by Ward. Skinner invisible.

Eric and Semin were invisible last game to. At least we got one game out of Skinner this season.

Might be able to watch this one, in the past I've been able to find a stream for our preseason games in Buffalo.

Yes he will go to the prospect graveyard.

Don't think that's an option today. No Buffalo TV feed.

Now I'll have to wait to read the police report, or else the game didn't happen.

You know what this means, right guys? We have a whole GDT to ourselves and no game action to report...

Not really, we'll just over-react to the Canes_Gameday tweets and Chuck's radio broadcast. Then we will post with authority as if we were seeing it live. I'll get started now.

"Khudobin should have had that, looks like last season was a fluke"
"Jordan, you have to bury that. Hands of stone."
"Rask looks awesome. He's a lock"
"Gleason...LOL"

 

[tarheelhockey]

I think we should just ignore Chuck and make up our own play-by-play.

 

[BrindAmours Army]

Zach Boychuk/Jordan Staal/Jiri Tlusty
Brock McGinn/Victor Rask/Greg Nemisz
Nathan Gerbe/Riley Nash/Justin Shugg
Bredan Woods/Brody Sutter/Jared Staal

It looks like WRAL is on team Rask

 

[What the Faulk]

Sweet coast to coast rush by Zach Boychuk. Stick him with Eric ASAP.

 

[HisIceness]

Another dumb penalty taken by our captain.

Power Play

Rod Brind'Amour took a puck to the head during warm-ups. Required a few stitches, but he's behind the bench. Hashtag hockey player.

0 for 3 on the power play and the Sabres score first

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Another partial breakaway it sounds like.

Also, I completely forgot we had JML.

2-0 Buffalo

He's on a PTO with Arizona I believe.
